Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Answer:

6

Step-by-step explanation:

A line that passes through the point (x,y), with a y-intercept of b and a slope of m, can be represented by the equation y = mx + b.

If a line has the slope of -0.5, then m=-0.5 and the equation of the line is

y=-0.5x+b

This line passes throughthe point (10,1), then the coordinates of this point satisfy the equation of the line:

1=-0.5\cdot 10+b\\ \\1=-5+b\\ \\b=1+5\\ \\b=6

and the equation of the line is

y=-0.5x+6

Since b=6, the y-intercept of the line is 6.

Through (-3, 2) parallel to y = -2x-1
Slav-nsk [51]

Answer:

y = - 2x - 4

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

y = - 2x - 1 ← is in slope- intercept form

with slope m = - 2

Parallel lines have equal slopes , then

y = - 2x + c ← is the partial equation

To find c substitute (- 3, 2 ) into the partial equation

2 = 6 + c ⇒ c = 2 - 6 = - 4

y = - 2x - 4 ← equation of parallel line
